RE: The tariff classification of a stainless steel screw; fuse holder assembly with fuse; ring terminal; relay module; and rubber grommet from Taiwan, Singapore, and Korea

Dear Mr. Patrakis:

In your letter dated June 20, 1995 you requested a tariff classification ruling.

As indicated in your request, these items are for use with a 12 volt electrical system in an automobile and consist of the following:

- a 1/8 - 8 X 1/2 Type AB slotted hex washer head stainless steel tapping screw

- a fuse holder assembly consisting of electrical wire with fittings at each end, and a fuse housing (including fuse) at one end

- a rubber grommet

- a ring terminal for use with 12-16 gauge electrical wire

- a relay module

The applicable subheading for the 1/8 - 8 X 1/2 slotted hex washer head stainless steel screw will be 7318.14.1000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for self-tapping screws, having shanks or threads with a diameter of less than 6 mm. The rate of duty will be 6.2 percent ad valorem. The applicable subheading for the fuse holder assembly will be 8544.41.0000, HTS, which provides for other electric conductors, for a voltage not exceeding 80 V, fitted with connectors. The rate of duty will be 4.8 percent ad valorem. The applicable subheading for the ring terminal will be 8536.90.0060, HTS, which provides for other electrical apparatus for making connections to or in electrical circuits. The rate of duty will be 4.8 percent ad valorem. The applicable subheading for the relay module will be 8536.41.0060, HTS, which provides for other relays for a voltage not exceeding 60 V. The rate of duty will be 4.8 percent ad valorem.

Your inquiry does not provide enough information for us to provide a classification ruling on the rubber grommet. Your request for a classification ruling should include the name of the rubber used in the production of the grommet.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If the documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the transaction.

Sincerely,

Jean F. Maguire
